TEN followed up Y&T's near breakout album CONTAGIOUS with a commercial THUD! But, WAIT! THIS IS A VERY GOOD ALBUM! What happened? Most likely Geffen lost faith in the band's ability to sell, so TEN was shipped out with little fanfare or promotion. That's a shame, because this album is one of the strongest of their career, and had a potential hit in "Ten Lovers" (if they had released it in edited form as a single). "Hard Times" is the last of the Y&T signature songs ("25 Hours A Day," "Forever," "Mean Streak," etc.) and lyrically seems to concede that they had their shot, but just couldn't hit the target. The album is filled with gems; "City," "Goin' Off The Deep End," "Surrender," "She's Gone," etc, but it also has a few songs that have a more generic feel to them. Still, TEN is a Very strong album, and stands as one of Y&T's finest moments. They followed up TEN with a "farewell" tour and subsequent live album (YESTERDAY AND TODAY LIVE - a GREAT live album!), and years later with a "reunion" resulting in two strong albums, MUSICALLY INCORRECT and ENDANGERED SPECIES. But in 1990 the loyal Y&T fans were ecstatic about TEN, an album stylistaclly somewhere between MEAN STREAK and CONTAGIOUS. -(if you like this one, check out Tesla's GREAT RADIO CONTROVERSY and BUST A NUT CD's, and RATT's self-titled 1999 CD.)

ONE OF Y&T'S BEST ALBUMS, EVERY TRACK IS GREAT, ESPECIALLY WITH THE AWESOME SHM AUDIO FORMAT. MUST HAVE FOR ANY CD COLLECTION, BUT DON'T PAY THESE RIDICULOUS OVER-INFLATED PRICES, I BOUGHT MINE FROM THE MUSIC SPECIALIST ON E BAY, THEY ALSO HAVE A STORE IN GEMM, ANTEATERMUSIC. SAVE YOURSELF A TON OF CASH.
CHEERS!
